    If you're close to me (near S7) - I'll have a few baby Hermanns to give away by next Thursday. I plan to keep it going for a while, since I've seen quite a few recipe variations. However, there are also instructions online for starting it from scratch with yeast, if you fancy trying it.

    Family fed, dishwasher emptied, cat dishes cleaned and filled - other than one more e-mail I've done for today. Not achieved much, but I'm trying really hard to be fit for work tomorrow.

    exactly.. be interesting to see what other lies they have concocted.. I however am compiling a list to hand over.. such as his slapper was a druggie and 'free' prostitute and had her daughter taken into care so she is so perfect you see. And him.. well, I am givig them DS1 and DD1's phone numbers so they can speak to them about what KH is like.. I don't need to say a word. Though given he ignores DS3's diabetes, the girls disabilities and tried refusing growth hormone replacement for DD4 because 'he loves her little' so she thought he would not love her taller.. he is disgusting.. but.. I am so going to get behind the wheel of the karma bus!

    OH MY WORD.. KH has excelled himself once again.. his slapper has rang social services about me because... Squeak doesn't sit at the table for dinner and has fallen asleep twice in her highchair.. she has just given up on naps so is exhausted by 5pm... she doesn't sit at the table because she is only 21 months and it would be dangerous for her to sit there, plus she would have to stand on the chair to see her food! AND.. my 11.5 year old.. makes herself cereal for breakfast OMG.. I best be taken out and shot!!!

    Talk about petty.. this is all because I refuse to force my 15 y/o daughter to go to his because I think she is able to make her own decisions about such things.

    Mid-furniture shuffle in the front room.. I appear to have trashed the whole room! :eek:

    OMG.....FUD that is all :mad:

    Well I have probably had about 11 or 12 different children through my house tonight, all to see the butterflies that have hatched. DD got a butterfly habitat thing at christmas & we sent away for caterpillars a wee while ago, long story short, we now have 4 butterflies in the habitat with one still to come out the chrysalide, it actually has been quite fascinating to watch them. Online application will be continued tomorrow or not, just remembered I have parents night at 7pm :eek:.

    Kitchen is absolutely spotless, I took niece back & popped in to see my friend, came back & it was all shiny & sparkly again, I have done all lunches, DH is off to work with his, HHI, watered strawbs, front garden & all pots & baskets, plants coming on nicely & thats it really, am cream crackered tonight....roll on Friday.
